acidification is the build up of hydrogen ions(H+)‚ reducing the pH‚ therefore the soil becomes too acidic. The donor can be an acid‚ such as nitric acid and sulfuric acid.The addition of the acids can be due to acid rain and pollution. Many nitrogen compounds‚ which are added as fertilizer‚ also acidify soil over the long term because they produce nitrous and nitric acid when oxidized in the process of nitrification. Acidification also occurs when base cations such as calcium‚ magnesium‚ potassium

Lactic Acid Bacteria Amanda Perry Many persons are oblivious to the fact that when they consume certain delicious food products like yogurt‚ buttermilk or cheese‚ they are actually eating live bacterial biomass which has acidified the milk content and contains a mixture of bacterial slime layers. Perhaps it is a blessing that most people are unaware because when most hear the word ‘bacteria‚’ their first thought is of a microscopic unicellular organism that causes various types of diseases especially

Different antacids 8. Side effects 9. Nursing implifications 10. Inference Abstract of the work under taken Antacids are medicines that neutralize stomach acid. They are used to relieve acid indigestion‚ upset stomach‚ sour stomach‚ and heartburn. Antacids are taken by mouth and work by neutralizing excess stomach acid. They contain ingredients such as aluminum hydroxide‚ calcium carbonate‚ magnesium hydroxide‚ and sodium bicarbonate‚ alone or in various combinations. Antacid products

9.1 Sulphuric Acid Sulphuric Acid is Manufactured in Industry 1. Sulphuric acid‚ H2SO4 is manufactured in industry through Contact Process. 2. The raw materials used are sulphur‚ air and water 3. The Contact process consists of three stages. Stage 1: The production of sulphur dioxide This can be obtained by two methods: 1. Burning of sulphur in dry air in the furnace S + O SO2 2. Burning of metal sulphide such as zinc sulphide or iron(III) sulphide in dry air. 2ZnS

This paper is an analysis conducted on Nucleic Acids through a variety of tests specifically‚ Dische‚ Murexide‚ Wheeler-Johnson and Phosphate Tests in order to exemplify structural features of nucleic acids as well as identify the principle involved in each chemical test. Different procedures and different test compounds were applied‚ and results were noted as for changes in colors of precipitates or solutions. For Dische Test‚ light blue was obtained for RNA and dark violet for DNA. For Murexide

EXPERIMENT 13： Extraction: Extraction with acid and alkali Objective 1. To recover the benzoic acid and p-dichlorobenzene from its mixture from its mixture by using acid-alkali extraction. 2. To determine the percentage recovery and melting point of the recovered benzoic acid and p-dichlorobenzene. Introduction Acid-base extraction is a process which purifying the acids and bases from mixtures based on their chemical properties. Acid-base extraction is performed to isolate the compounds and natural
